well, came home this morning and the ups man dropped this package off with parts i ordered from courtesy nissan.

 

the package also came with the front jdm carbon front finisher.

i couldn't wait to put it on, so here it is on.

 

here is a side pic of it on.

 

now here is the question...........

should i change the front reflectors to smoked, or should i leave them clear...........

please help me decide.

 

here is one last pic of the full front side view of the car with the carbon finisher.

i opted to this carbon front finisher because the front was a little too blad/boring. to me it looks great!!!!!!!!

i was going to get the top secret front lip, but the matching top secret rear wing did not look appeasing to me.

my car is low also, so putting a front lip or changing to a body kit with a lip (nismo) would be detrimental.

the only body kits that appease my eyes are the nismo kit and the ings half kit.

i think i will put a body kit on, but only when the carbon fiber nismo r-tune body kit comes out. i like the look of the two-tone of white and carbon fiber.

That looks dope, who makes that cf front?? Are you keeping the GM te's, or still gettin the mercury silver ones??

 

I say go with the smoked reflectors, the contrast will be better with the white paint than the clear will...on my car im gonna go with clear since my car is black, but for white, go with the smoked lens.

 

I like em clear so now it's 50/ 50

However if you swap out I will buy your clears and we live in same area.

 

hi matix,

the gunmetal wheels are going to chebosto once i get my rear set of flat silver te-37s. i have the front set of silver te-37s, just waiting for the rears.

the carbon fiber look front finisher is a jdm part from nissan japan, but courtesy nissan carries it now. i purchased it from them.

and thanx for your opinion on the smoked reflectors.

hi maxhax,

if i do change to smoked, i'll let you know about the clears.

Your car looks great!

In South Sac Slang

"It's off the heasy fo sheesy!"

Translation, it's off the hook for sure.

 

john it looks great i,m jealous. how do you like the drop on the car too much or just right

 

the front finisher looks great. The front almost look like the Nismo GT. I say stick with the white reflectors. I think the smoke might break the smooth line of the front bumper, kinda like how the orange stands out too much, especially on a ppw.
Anyways, hopefully, at the next meet, I get to hear that horn... been eyeing that from courtesy as well...

 

jfive,

don't be jealous man, ok? mods take time. anyways, the car is just right. after i get the adjustable front camber a -arms, adustable front and rear sways, and adjustable tie-link, i will be corner weighting my car for optimum performance.

 

I went clear...so should you!

 

whatever,

yes. that's why i like the front carbon finisher. it does look a little like the front of the nissan gt car.

 

Geez, I head on over to the performance section and see you installed the exhaust. Now over here and more goodies?

Yeah I like the look of that CF finisher. Ive been thinking about getting that also since i have so many chips on that portion of the front.

For the corner lens, I dont know. You should just try and put them on and see how they look. I personally like clears.

 

Looks great. Entire car looks brilliant! I'd say go with the smoked reflectors.

 

Yeah John, I forgot to ask. You only adjusted the camber in the rear? If I read correctly you are getting upper arms for the front?
How is the current front camber?

Also, any word from those idiots at JIC about your tie rod. I cant wait to get onto prototyping some "inexpensive" rods for the folks here. You can help a revolution hahaha.
